Modelling the North Staffordshire Railway

Wizard Models 51L manufactures a range of 4mm wagon and van models under the 51L name.
Wizard also acquired the Chowbent 4mm range of carriages. 51L includes some NSR wagons.

The 51L website lists a number of Historical Societies
which are likely to be of interest to modellers viewing our site, including some brief information about the North Staffordshire Railway.

The kits include a turned end middle axle and a cunning working radial truck and
sprung axles incorporating a Cleminson type arrangement. They could build up at P4 or
EM without any difficulty. Axleboxes need to be found, from 51L for example, and some
suitable seating.

The kits consist of etched underframe and body (sides and ends). The underframe is off the old
Milk Van kit and has had the truck sides added so at least you don't have to make too many
modifications. I've built three of the above now, they fit well, and the standard of etching is excellent.

Earlier etchings in a range of scales from Mousa Models can be found
here.

Markits also have NSR Adams/Field chimneys suitable for the Longbottom engines,
the K class and the M/H classes. They are turned brass and very nice. They also do injectors which are suitable for the NSR, as do Jackson - Evans.

London Road Models are currently
advertsing the forthcoming introduction of a range of NSR carriages in 4mm scale, to accompany their models of Classes B (2-4-0T and 2-4-2T variants) and D.

The Worsley Works Group specialises in producing high quality
etched brass kits for model railways in the scales most others ignore. Currently they list over 500 3mm scale British standard
gauge kits and 200 narrow gauge kits in 3mm, 4mm, 5.5mm, 7mm, 15mm and 16mm scales. They have a growing range of kits in 2mm scale
and 'N' Gauge and are one of the few manufacturers to support British 1:87 scale with new kits.
